If you're searching Frostytech for a 'Bulldozer' heatsink, keep in mind that AMD CPUs have a much larger Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS) surface area than Intel's processors and thus some heatsinks tend to work better with AMD. If you're looking around on the web at reviews, focus on tests which draw conclusions from heatsinks tested on AMD Black Edition chips, rather than try to translate the results from heatsinks tested on Intel CPUs - the two don't always correlate. As always, Frostytech's Top 5 Heatsinks Chart lists the best AMD heatsinks we've tested to date!
